On Twos

He's done bouts of 4 or 5 steps unaided this weekend. Ah, but only when he's in the mood to do so!

And it's too difficult to "catch the moments".

Sitting

At the Grand Ole Age of 6 months, the little boy still can't sit independently. ;( His elder sis & bro could sit by 6mths, just about. And his 二哥 (small big bro) could sit by himself at 4 months!

Nevertheless, when we were offered the baby high chair at our fave roti prata place, we tried.

Well, he can sit for awhile.....but he asked to be carried not long after! Mom's lap is probably still his preferred! Oh well... still have to eat with difficulty outside! Not something I relish.

Semi-Solids

JR turned 6 months old a week ago. He was down with a slight cough then, so we decided to hold off the introduction of solids . No hurry!

We started off with an instant brown rice ceral, Healthy Times single-grain. 1 tablespoon of dry cereal. He was so excited. It was all finished!

Single-foods are given at a time so that we can more easiliy watch for allergies to any single food.

Toe-Lickin' Good!

Such delectable heels & toes, eh?

And he sure has grown. 2months ago, this outfit was so loose on him. Now it's fitting.

Teething

Chew, Chew, Chew...dribble, dribble, dribble... and 2 little pearlies have popped out since, with 2 more on the way! All at the grand ole age of 4.5months.

Anticipation

The look of anticipation as I pick him up to nurse. His cries will quieten to a soft whimper or even stop, while he waits for me to get ready and position him to nurse:

I just had to capture this look!
